The only way there would be a war between the US and China is if China attacks the US in any way, or goes to war against one or more of our allies in Asia. To do so would be catastrophic for China. America is China's largest trading partner. The moment war starts, that economic relationship...

Allah's (SWT) blessings upon you and your family! :smitten: Very nice thread with great information, my friend. 'Ramadan kareem', to you and your family and may you have a happy Eid! :wave:

Woke up this morning to the tragic news of 20 of the hostages being hacked to death. Can you imagine? Hostages on the floor, seeing and hearing their fellow captives being hacked to death with machetes, waiting their turn to be next? I can't comprehend what they must have endured. God will...

It reminds me exactly, of this scene from a famous movie from 1972. Robert Redford's character just won election as a US Senator in a race he never thought he would win. Classic! :P

He's an American, i.e., to have them handy....just in case. :usflag:

Well, I won't even go into some of the rather odd things you assert like, "the US commandos would have been captured alive, if possible, or dead, in any such activity in which the Military was not expressly involved.", which is really a rather bizarre assertion given the record of units like...

News here is that the security forces on the scene say they will storm at daylight which I'm praying they didn't actually say to reporters. It's not like the terrorist have cell phones, mobile devices, internet access! o_O Why do I think the terrorist are waiting to be stormed so they can...

A yes, I assume you mean the good ole' days of the British Empire? So much better then, eh? :wave:

I agree. If I flew PIA I would want some yummy Pakistani food. That's what I'm talkin' about!

Great pictures, guys! :enjoy:

It's the language. In English, countries are usually refereed to as "she". 'Mother England', and whatnot. In Latin languages, countries are usually refereed to in masculine terms as in patria, or patrie' in French, i.e., "fatherland". I didn't think of that. I thought in French, the...

Multiple news sources are reporting that the mastermind of this week's IS terror attack on Istanbul's main airport that killed 44 people and wounded 239 others has been identified as Akhmed Chatayev, a Chechen extremest commander of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. He has numerous...

The problem I have always discovered with conspiracy theories is that they violate the rules of logic by starting with what the person often passionately wants to believe, and that they quickly require an ever expanding cast of villains in order to ever make their theory "work". In my...

Gee, the vast number of conspirators obviously went to incredible lengths to foist this deception. :o: :wave:

They are ignored because the deal was shoved down the throats of Americans by the very undemocratic way it was accomplished by President Obama. It is overwhelmingly opposed by the American people by a two-to-one margin and the Senate has been livid that Mr. Obama used "hook-and-crook" methods...

Really, that is a deeply flawed argument. There are plenty of military vets in my country who have also been shot in the head who recovered no differently then Malala did, as it totally depends on the exact circumstances as to the extent of the injuries, bullet type, location of wound on the...

A great operation! Thanks for the history. :tup: I remember when this happened and I have seen both popular movie versions of the event. A classic example of highly professional special operations troops in action. The OP mentions the role of former Labour PM Ehud Barak, and that the...

Not to derail the thread but the JF-17 was never really intended for BVR or long endurance CAP missions. It was intended as a replacement for aging Mirage III/V, A-5, J-7's in point air defence and ground attack. As far back as 2006 though, China offered the J-10, (which is designed from the...

The article I have isn't perfectly clear but it gives the impression that Turkey provided engines to PAF F-16's... "Both countries have struck a deal in an aviation project under which Istanbul will modernize Pakistan’s air fighter planes and some of them have already been flown to Turkey, said...

IOW....."Oops." :oops:
